retirement, the Board of Trustees is seeking an accomplished
leader who will continue the nearly 150-year tradition of a
positive, community-centered culture to become the Library’s
next Director. The Adrian District Library is an independent
governing unit, serving a population of over 21,000 with an
operating budget of nearly $1 million and a dedicated,
enthusiastic staff of 12 (3 with the MLIS degree). The
community demonstrated their continuing strong support for the
Library with a positive vote for a 10-year operational millage
in May 2015. The Library building, in the heart of downtown
Adrian, underwent a major renovation in 2009, adding 3200 square
feet that includes a Teen Zone, a quiet seating area in the
Loft, a Café, and a renovated Tween space in the Youth Services
area.</span><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family:
